[PATCH] ext2: Fix the max file size for ext2 file system.

[Aneesh Kumar K.V]

The max file size for ext2 file system is now calculated
with hardcoded 4K block size. The patch fixes it to be
calculated with the right block size.

It may be worthwhile calculating how many indirect blocks there actually
are in a file that size.  Also note that your comments are backward -
there is at most a single triple indirect block per file.

The math become more confusing for that right ?. I am not sure we need to be that specific.

What i meant by those comment was, the count of meta data blocks taken for
different type of indirect blocks.
